1. On or before August 1 of each odd-numbered year, the Department, in consultation with the Budget Division of the Office of Finance and the Fiscal Analysis Division of the Legislative Counsel Bureau, shall determine a recommended minimum amount of money to be expended during each fiscal year of a biennium for textbooks, instructional supplies, instructional software and instructional hardware by all school districts, charter schools and university schools for profoundly gifted pupils. The amount must be determined by increasing the amount that was established for the Fiscal Year 2004-2005 by the percentage of the change in enrollment between Fiscal Year 2004-2005 and the fiscal year for which the amount is being established, plus any inflationary adjustment approved by the Legislature after Fiscal Year 2004-2005.
2. The Department, in consultation with the Budget Division of the Office of Finance and the Fiscal Analysis Division of the Legislative Counsel Bureau, shall develop or revise, as applicable, a formula for determining the minimum amount of money that each school district, charter school and university school for profoundly gifted pupils is recommended to expend each fiscal year for textbooks, instructional supplies, instructional software and instructional hardware. The sum of all of the minimum amounts determined pursuant to this subsection must be equal to the combined minimum amount determined pursuant to subsection 1. The formula must be used only to develop expenditure recommendations and must not be used to alter the yearly apportionment from the State Education Fund to school districts, charter schools or university schools for profoundly gifted pupils.
3. Upon approval of the formula pursuant to subsection 2, the Department shall provide written notice to each school district, charter school and university school for profoundly gifted pupils on or before August 15 of each odd-numbered year that sets forth the recommended minimum combined amount of money that the school district, charter school and university school for profoundly gifted pupils may expend for textbooks, instructional supplies, instructional software and instructional hardware for each fiscal year of a biennium.
